In many scientific computations such as simulations of nano-scale phenomena, simulations of vibration of vehicles and weather predictions, linear algebraic problems such as systems of linear equations and matrix eigenvalue problems need to be numerically solved. Large-scale problems need to be solved in order to simulate realistically, and high performance algorithms suit for parallel processing using a lot of computers are highly demanded. Additionally, in recent years, demands for application to big data analysis are increasing. By developing algorithms and software as bases for many large-scale scientific computations and data analysis, let’s make a multi-disciplinary innovation.
